Crafting with the kids is one of my favorite things to do along with baking. My kids LOVE crafting and baking so we were very excited when our friends at Thomas Allen & Son Ltd gave us the chance to review Christmas Crafting with Kids by Catherine Woram.

This book includes 35 projects for the holiday season for children of all ages. It is divided into a few different chapters - Decorations, Gifts, Cards & Wrapping. It also includes templates you will need to do some of the crafts.

My children loved going through this book letting me know each craft they would like to try. I decided we would make the Orange Tree decorations. These were easy to make but do require adults to cut the oranges and bake them; also to use a sharp object to make a hole for the ribbon. The baking time is long so you will need to plan it for a day you have 4 hours to bake them.They smell really nice and are fun decorations.

The kids and I will be sitting down this weekend and making the Festive Bells which are make with egg cartons, paint, sparkles, bells and string. I really love that all the crafts require pretty easy to find and inexpensive products. We are also going to make the Chocolate brownies, Yum!

I have marked off a few that we may even do for other times of the year. I love the idea of the Button Photo Frame and will be doing this with the kids for grandparents day. I was thinking this will be a nice little gift with a photo of the grand kids.

Where to buy: You can find where to pick up a copy of Christmas Crafting with Kids through Thomas Allen & Son Ltd website. This book retails for $23.95.
